RC11. My Memory Having a RC Car. My no 10 RC. 1/10 - 2001 Tamiya TB-01 Rally

In 7/2/2008 when shopping in Melaka, saw cheap sale inToy City Shop. I bought third new EP RC, 2001 TAMIYA TB01 with Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VII Body (Pro kit) rally car 4x4 prices Rm299.50. I change the motor to Trinity 19T and Tamiya ESC but slow so i change it to driff car. In 2010 again change the ESC to TP-M8 woo more faster if the battery full charge. Problem for this RC is hard to get spare parts, Ebay also not much. The next model are TB02 and new is TB03. Today i have problem with the front and rear shock tower boken the plastic become hard and eazy break not like other RC parts made by soft plastic. In 2017 i modified with hard aluminium plate.

Start bloog = 11/7/2008
Last update  bloog = 04/01/2023
Sum for parts = Rm1088.90
2001 - 2024 = 23 Years.
Made in Japan (🇯🇵)

In 2018 i change front dogbone tu UJ. 

For the both rear and front shock tower i modified it with aluminium plate. Cut 2 pcs same size and glue togather more thicker to hold the shock absorber. To use a thick plate i didn't have mechine to do it. All done in 2018

The original shock tower. Can't buy new no more. 

Crack at side screw hole to shock and crack on screw to body. Already glue but can't hold crack again.

Use a aluminium plate measure the size and cut out 2 pcs.


Cut out the shape not 100%, attach both together with glue. Done a simple modified parts.

From top not as tick as the original. But still can stand the shock impack,if still dent i will add one more plate.

From back for the ball end i tighten with nut.

Same to the rear shock tower.

Add a new form bumper in front
